Amphipathic Lipids~ hydrophobic & hydrophilic regions
Singer-Nicholson:
fluid mosaic modelproposed in 1972
(Current model)

The heads face outward and the tails face inward In water, phospholipids form a stable bilayer
Approx. 10 nm thickPhospholipid Bilayer
-Amphipathic molecules-Saturated and Unsaturated lipids
Proteins: integral &* peripheralCholesterol
-acts as a buffer-increases membrane integrity-increases fluidity
Membranes organize the chemical reactions making up metabolism
Cytoplasm
Figure 5.10
They control the flow of substances into and out of a cell Membranes are selectively permeable
**Small, Nonpolar molecules easily pass through the membrane: O2, CO2, H2O, Hormones, Steroids
**Large, Charged do not pass through easily and must be
helped in. These molecules would include:
C6H12O6 , Proteins, and Ions
Membranes regulate chemical reactions and can hold teams of enzymes that function in metabolism
Phospholipids are the main structural components of membranes
They each have a hydrophilic head and two hydrophobic tails

Phospholipids~ membrane fluidity
Cholesterol~ membrane stabilization
“Mosaic” Structure~
Integral proteins~ transmembrane proteins
Peripheral proteins~ surface of membrane
Membrane carbohydrates ~ cell to cell recognition; oligosaccharides (cell markers); glycolipids; glycoproteins
David Frye & Micheal Edin (1970)
To function properly: Lipids must be in a state of optimal fluidity Too much fluidity weakens the membrane
-not enough cholesterol-too many unsaturated phospholipids
Also, the membrane cannot be too rigid because transport through the membrane is inhibited
Temperature changes can severely effect the membrane. HOW?

Begins w/ signaling molecule called a Ligand Ligands-examples are hormones & proteins
Involves several proteins: Receptor (1st messenger) binds w/the ligand Protein Kinases: an enzyme that transfers
phosphate groups from ATP to a protein (uses ATP & moves phosphates)

In passive transport, substances diffuse through membranes without work by the cell They spread from
areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration

EQUILIBRIUM
Diffusion~ tendency of molecules to move from
areas of high concentration to areas of low. Concentration gradient
Passive transport~ diffusion of a substance across a biological membrane
Osmosis~ the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane
Osmosis is the passive transport of water
• In osmosis, water travels from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration

Two Models of Facilitated Diffusion
Osmosis causes cells to shrink in a hypertonic solution and swell in a hypotonic solution The control of water balance
(osmoregulation) is essential for organismsISOTONIC SOLUTION

First solute, inside cell, binds to protein
Phosphorylated transport protein
2 ATP transfers phosphate to protein
3 Protein releases solute outside cell
4 Second solute binds to protein
Second solute
5 Phosphate detaches from protein
6 Protein releases second solute into cell
Utilizes ATP and a protein
Moves substances against the concentration gradient
(Low to High)
Typical example is: Na/K pump(Observed in nerve
cells)
Membrane potential: a charge difference across the membrane
Most commonly seen in nerve cells (sodium & potassium pump) – see pg 135
Achieved through actively pumping ions on one side of the membrane. (Na+ and K+)
All cells have a potential with a slight negative charge on the inside a positive charge on the outside. Why???
Transport proteins Facilitated diffusion~
passage of molecules and ions with transport proteins across a membrane down the concentration gradient
Active transport~ movement of a substance against its concentration gradient with the help of cellular energy

2) How is diffusion different from facilitative diffusion?
3) Name some factors that can affect diffusion rates of molecules.
4) Name the ions used to show how active transport works in a the cell membrane. What role does ATP play during this process?
5) What is the charge range difference across the membrane? Which side is positive and which side is negative?
Osmoregulation~ control of water balance
Hypertonic~ higher concentration of solutes
Hypotonic~ lower concentration of solutes
Isotonic~ equal concentrations of solutes
Cells with Walls: Turgid (very firm) Flaccid (limp) Plasmolysis~ plasma
membrane pulls away from cell wall
Endocytosis~ import of macromolecules by forming new vesicles with the plasma membrane
•phagocytosis•pinocytosis•receptor-mediated
Exocytosis~ secretion of macromolecules by the fusion of vesicles with the plasma membrane
To move large molecules or particles through a membrane a vesicle may fuse with the membrane and expel
its contents
